Rope access etc

As long as the lift is working to get your weights on the roof cradles are a doddle, as for dope access, I have slagged these guys for years but the inspection guys do create a lot of work for us but most are just glorified painters. If rope access is a route anyone is considering Then do your inspection tickets and you won`t go far wrong but you must be able to bore the thruppenny bits of anyone who will watch your crap videos, "we are not interested and you are all boring c()nts" ah feel better I got that out.
 
1989... thats the last cradle i did for sgb, great money on cradle moves.
easy work aswell....happy days.
 
Anyone heard of any work at soddem voe lately chaps ? As my pal tells me flotta on the Orkneys is the place to be though. ( and I did spell it wrong on purpose ) I've been away and just putting the feelers out ?

Done loads of rope cradles in the 80s when they where still legal ,
They where sound as long as the lads working in them understood the knots ,
And didn't try and be clever by lowering both sides at once .
